The problem is that you haven't installed to python2-devel RPM:

  http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.1.1/rpms/python2-devel-2.1.1-1.i386.rpm
  http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.1.1/rpms/python2-devel-2.1.1-3.i386.rpm

Pick the one that matches the release on your python2-2.1.1 RPM and install
it.
